Mitch Hedberg: “I went to a Subway sandwich shop, and I said, ‘Let me have a bun,’ but she wouldn’t sell me just a bun. She said it had to have something on it. She told me it’s against regulations for Subway to sell just a bun; I guess the two halves ain’t supposed to touch. So, I said, ‘Alright, put some lettuce on it,’ which they did. They said, ‘That’ll be $1.75.’ I said, ‘It’s for a duck.’ They said, ‘Alright, well then it’s free.’ See, I did not know that — ducks eat for free at Subway. Had I known that, I would’ve ordered a much larger sandwich. ‘Lemme have the steak fajita sandwich, but don’t bother ringing it up, it’s for a duck! There are six ducks out there, and they all want SunChips!'”

Hmmm, tough choice. I’m going to go with Subway… Because the new year is less than a month away, and I’m sure I’ll attempt a New Year’s resolution of attempting to eat somewhat healthier. And I’m sure that resolution will last no longer than 2 weeks.

I am a professional eater and am planning to do a six-foot footlong challenge soon! A gift card to Subway would definitely help with that!

Unfortunately, I just read the fine print… As a citizen of Canada I am pretty much out of luck :/ Oh well, if you are interested in seeing me perform that stunt and others like it feel free to checkout my Youtube channel “Junkfood Bodybuilding” (shameless plug)

I have not eaten fast food in twenty years but if i win i will go to McDonalds. I read your blog faithfully and since you tell me how it is i don’t need to eat it myself! My waist & my husband thank you! Lisa Marie

Thanks for the time and dedication you put into making this blog a fun and educational resource. Your blog is a daily source of interesting and comical food updates. I would very much appreciate winning the Subway card, given that I’m a poor college student with an appetite. Thanks again!

Would loooooove to win the Subway gift card! I love their sandwiches. And the COOKIES! If I win, I am taking my twin sister out for an awesome lunch. We love the chocolate chip cookies! Thank you for offering up a giveaway so close to the holidays. Woohoo!

It is the season of giving. I’d love to be given a free McD’s gift card and if they produce any sort of interesting new menu item, I promise to GIVE you a full ” Spotted on Shelf” update. Thank you for giving us a chance!

Sometimes you get on the subway, and there’s a person eating a sub, and you’re like CRAP I need to go to Subway. And then you wished you had a Subway gift card, because then you could get one of those three-foot subs, and eat it all by yourself.

Actually, it is not terribly difficult to get melted snow on this rock in the middle of the Pacific.

I’d choose the McDonalds gift card; I don’t know that I actually prefer it over Subway, but since someone gave me a Subway gift card (that I have yet to use) for my birthday, a McDs card would balance me out.

I need a break from McDonald’s. I’ve eaten there so many times compared to Subway. I think its time to finally switch it up. If I won the Subway gift card, I’d make it my duty to try as many new things as I could. That is my pledge as a foodie. XD

A couple of years ago my boyfriend asked where I wanted to go for dinner on Valentine’s Day and I told him that the only thing I was really craving was Subway. SUBWAY! I love how you can smell that delicious bread a block away.

The annual Chick-fil-A calendar is a great deal at Christmas. I got one last year for $5 and probably got over $25 worth of food (from a GOOD fast food place). And they are making strides in taking artificial everything out of their buns and soup. The calendar is now $6 but has some great free food if you take advantage of it every month. OK this has nothing to do with Mickey D’s or Subway. Hmmmm but if I won, I’d have to pick McDonald’s because I can do a lot with their dollar menu 🙂

I worked at Subway in Kaneohe (Windward City Shopping Center) in 1990 before it was super popular and found in every town. My favorite back then was a turkey on wheat with everything. Twenty three years later I still order the same sandwich and I still love it just as much. I would love to win a Subway gift card!
Aloha,

I’d like the Subway card – because I don’t pretend to eat healthy, I DO eat healthy.

I actually had a fish sandwich from McDonald’s the other night (first time in about a year) and my mouth felt AWFUL after eating it – it had this strange, oily feel that I just HATED. Ugh. I think that it’ll be a long, long time (as in never) before I have another fish sandwich from McDonald’s.

Huh; I entered a Christmas blog contest that had Mountain Standard Time stipulations, and now a contest with Hawaii Standard Time rules. I feel like Marty McFly, bouncing between time zones! Or, at least, learning how to figure what the local time is in said zone.
